Smart mine with 5G and WiFi6

Broadband wireless communication is foundation and key of smart mine construction. Special requirements for mine broadband wireless communication were proposed. Wireless signal is required to cover roadway more than 10 kilometers coal mine underground. Wireless transmission must be intrinsically safe. Wireless working frequency band should not be too high. Wireless transmission should have certain diffraction ability. Anti-interference ability is strong. Mobility requirements are not high. Mine-used 5G and WiFi6 were researched. Both 5G and WiFi6 can be used for broadband wireless communication in smart mine. Mine-used 5G has advantages of high transmission rate, small transmission delay and high call quality, but the system is complex and cost is high.Mine-used WiFi6 has advantages of high transmission rate, simple system and low cost, but transmission delay is large and call quality is poor.
